Deuteronomy 28
1.The blessings for obedience
15.The curses for disobedience














Do not turn aside to the right or to the left
This phrase emphasizes the importance of strict adherence to God's commandments. In the ancient Near Eastern context, the imagery of not turning to the right or left suggests a straight path, symbolizing faithfulness and obedience. This concept is echoed inJoshua 1:7, where Joshua is instructed to follow the law without deviation. The idea of a straight path is also found inProverbs 4:27, reinforcing the need for unwavering commitment to God's instructions.

from any of the words I command you today
The emphasis on "any of the words" highlights the comprehensive nature of God's law. In Deuteronomy, Moses reiterates the covenant between God and Israel, underscoring the importance of every commandment. This reflects the covenantal relationship established at Sinai, where the Israelites agreed to follow all of God's laws (Exodus 24:3). The phrase "I command you today" indicates the immediacy and relevance of these commands, urging the Israelites to live in obedience in their present circumstances.

and do not go after other gods to serve them
This warning against idolatry is a recurring theme in Deuteronomy and the entire Old Testament. The historical context reveals that the Israelites were surrounded by nations with polytheistic practices, making the temptation to worship other gods a constant threat. The first commandment (Exodus 20:3) explicitly forbids the worship of other gods, establishing monotheism as a core tenet of Israelite faith. The call to exclusive worship of Yahweh is also prophetic, pointing to the ultimate fulfillment in Jesus Christ, who embodies the true and living God, calling His followers to serve Him alone (John 14:6).

What Does Deuteronomy 28:14 Mean
Do not turn aside

The opening phrase warns against even the smallest deviation from God’s will. Scripture presents obedience as a straight path, not a meandering trail we choose for ourselves.

•Joshua 1:7 echoes the same call: “Do not turn from it to the right or to the left, so that you may prosper wherever you go.” Prosperity is linked directly to unwavering obedience.

•Proverbs 4:27 reinforces the image: “Do not swerve to the right or to the left; turn your feet away from evil.” Any detour inevitably leads toward sin, not freedom.

•Deuteronomy 5:32 repeats the command almost word-for-word, underscoring that God’s standards never change.

to the right or to the left

These directions picture the whole spectrum of potential drift:

• “Right” and “left” cover every possible distraction—legalism on one side, license on the other.

• The safe ground is directly in the center of God’s revealed will.

• Staying centered brings clarity, while stepping off either shoulder leads to confusion, asProverbs 3:5-6 promises: “In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.”

from any of the words I command you today

God’s authority rests not merely in general ideas but in every word He speaks.

•Deuteronomy 12:32: “See that you do everything I command you; do not add anything to it or take anything away from it.”

•2 Timothy 3:16-17 affirms the same truth in the New Testament: “All Scripture is God-breathed… so that the man of God may be complete.”

• Literal obedience to every word guards us from the tendency to pick and choose what feels comfortable.

and do not go after other gods

Turning aside ultimately leads to idolatry.

•Exodus 20:3 lays the foundation: “You shall have no other gods before Me.”

•Deuteronomy 6:14 warns, “Do not follow other gods, the gods of the peoples around you.”

•Jeremiah 25:6 shows the consequence: “Do not follow other gods to serve and worship them… or I will harm you.”

Choosing any rival—whether a physical idol or a modern “god” like money or popularity—is spiritual adultery.

to serve them

Service is worship in action. Whatever we obey becomes our master.

•Joshua 24:15 draws the line clearly: “Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve.”

•Matthew 4:10 records Jesus’ own refusal to compromise: “Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.”

•1 Corinthians 10:14 applies it to believers today: “Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.” A life of service to God alone demonstrates true allegiance.

summary

Deuteronomy 28:14 is a concise call to total, undivided loyalty. We must stay on the straight path, refuse all detours, treasure every word God has spoken, shun every rival deity, and devote our service exclusively to the Lord. In doing so we live under His covenant blessing and reflect His holiness to the world.

(14)And thou shalt not go aside.--It is possible, of course, to connect this sentence with the "if" inDeuteronomy 28:13, "If that thou hearken and do not go aside." But the LXX., and apparently the Targums also, begin a fresh sentence with this verse. The idea that obedience begets obedience is by no means foreign to the Jewish mind. There are many passages in their literature which contain the thought expressed so forcibly inRevelation 22:11, "He that is unjust, let him be unjust still . . . and he that is holy, let him be holy still."

Verse 14. - (Cf.Deuteronomy 5:29;Deuteronomy 11:28.) Moses ends as he began, by reminding them that the condition of enjoying the blessing was obedience to the Divine Law, and steadfast adherence to the course in which they were called to walk.
